THE GOVERNOR SAYS

He Will have the Insane Hospital Trus-
tees Indicted and that he has Author

pie of Yankton need worry about the in
Justice that will be done the insane by
my refusal to allow 100000 to be ap-
propriated for the asylum enlargement
to be spent by the present asylum trns--
tees. 1 have power TO provide for the
insane OF the territory, and will do so.
1T there are more than can be accommo-
dated at Yapkton, I will provide for
them elsewhere. They will not suffer.
No, cant remove the present trustees.

establishing a precedent by winking and
connivlng at such proceedings as have

Law says that three members of
the board must be from Yankton. Az
there are only five members OF the
board, it is necessary localized. I can't
remove the trustees directly or a ape
